It was many years of over spending and not having a plan for our money that led us to that point. In June of 2010, we hit our rock bottom point.

But I would say the breaking point came in June of 2011 when I was in a car wreck. Don’t buy stuff you don’t need even if it seems like a great deal. Decide here and now what your goals are and write them down. Who initiated the debt free goal? How often do you and your spouse discuss your finances/budget/spending?

She writes at her personal finance website, And Then We Saved. It was more that I finally got to the point where I was sick of feeling like crap about myself and I was ready to do whatever it took to try to change things.

The Frugal Girl

MARCH 4, 2024

I read every post, but don’t comment often – usually some of you have already made my point for me. Although my parents never specifically taught me about finances, they lived a frugal life by necessity. I grew up in banking and held other finance-related positions during my working years. Spreadsheets are my friends.

What are your financial goals now?

Firstly, I was offered a better-paid job but needed a vehicle to get there, so I took out a loan to buy one. It was getting to the point that as soon as I got paid, covered my monthly bills and made the required debt repayments my bank account was back to zero again. If it wasn’t absolutely critical, I didn’t buy it.
